Because they know it. And they knew it before buying PS3. They chose the PS3 because, like me, THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE BEST LONG-TERM CHOICE. I bet they'd all buy a 360 if they only had 4 months to live, but they know it lasts longer than that, so they bought a PS3. Its as simple as that.

Cows will (and know) live with multiplats and AA games, until Fall. It was their choice.

Actually, yeah. I don't think ANYONE went out and bought a Wii thinking, "Man! My system is gonna thrash the graphics of the PS3 and 360"

The thing is you hear comments like this everyday on SW from people who haven't even played and PS3 games. Because all of a sudden less than a AAA is considered bad.

Your point is very valid that while PS3 library is very slow to start up, it WILL grow and round out more over time.

But FYI, X360 will last longer than 4 months too :)

You reap what you sow... The 360 had 3 AAAs by now as well as plenty of other AAs. Nice try.

The PS2 launched with Madden, so that kept my friends and I occupied for a long time.

You are wrong.I bought my PS3 to play GT HD and VF5 now. Motorstorm and Resistance are good enough exclusives for now,and the Blu-Ray movie playback is justa bonus.

No decent games? My 360 didn't have any must have games when I first bought it, until Oblivion released. When I bought my PS3 I got Resistance which I fell is a better launch title that anything 360 had at launch. Overall, PS3 is still a baby and needs more games to showcase itself, which is very true. Lemmings are just digging a whole for themselves now. PS3 will eventually surpass the 360 in AAA exclusives and sales. It's obvious especially since all of the support the PS2 had will come over to PS3 sooner or later.

It doesnt change the fact that the ps3 is over a year late, imagine the games selection if it had been released the same time as the 360!

I wouldnt wait that long and pay that little bit extra for average games.Own biased opinion obviously.

years, about 6 or more. while ps3 is stacking on games 360 will have more from previous stacks, but i do agree ps3 has games. the one that should be bash for not having that many games is the wii. wii only have like 5 game coming out that are great in its life time.. and of course im gonna mention the mario again, the metroid again, the zelda again and the smash bros, 5th unknown.

Wait, so you would risk a possible price drop in the future and a possible hardware malfunction just for a long-term investment? If you knew there wouldn't be any games, the smarter choice would have been to wait.

The PS3 still has no games, and they will be ripped on till that day. Cows brought it on themselves. They thought the PS3 would launch with a massive list of great games.

support comes where the money is at actually. 360 has the most console sold and easy to make games so delevopers say. wii is growing fast. ps3 is lowest seller and developers say its hard to program for it. im looking at sony in a bad position but they can recover from it maybe. remenber your history. Nes great, SNES great, n64 horrible, GC horrible compare to its competition. it wont be suprising if sony does a ps1 great, ps2 great, ps3 horrible, ps4 horrible but ps5 great.

Gamers have been spoiled. The trend goes back and forth:

Atari and Megadrive and stuff like that were awesome because they were among the first games. Any game was "good" on those systems. 

Nintendo and Sega released sweet games when the NES, Genesis, SNES, and N64 came out.

Then, the trend shifted. PS1 (and PS2) both had crap first years, but they eventually came out with good games.

Then, the XBOX came out, launching with Halo, and the trend shifted back to "strong launch titles". Obviously, all developers WANT to have strong launch titles, but it doesn't always happen.

Most of the complaining and naysaying is coming from XBOX (and 360) owners who were treated well by Halo (even though the first year of the 360 was crap. all it had was better graphics) and then they point the finger at Wii and PS3 owners and laugh.

Get off your highhorse.

That's true but not as bad as Cows are getting it now. I guess Lems are enjoying their glorious moment with the success of Gears and Launching with no competition, but the support for PS3 will be dominant in the later months. Especially since Home and Edge tools.

Yeah I hope not, cuz I like all consoles. That would suck. Right now 360 has more, but Sony is still No. 1 in the market overall.

tbh i believe a statement like this is damage control for cows. You spent $600 on a console thinking it will have all kinds of great games, but so far that hasn't happened or doesn't look to happen anytime soon.and the best argument you can come up with is that the ps2 did good? I am surprised Ps2 was able to do so good last gen, but the conditions are different now. This time, the 360 has the head-start and already looks to be a big improvement over the xbox. This time the Wii has made a big improvement over the GC as well. You can't count out the other consoles like you did last gen.

Trust me, dude. I loved my PS2 and will get a PS3 in atmost 2 months. I have nothing against it.......but the cows deserved this. I cam remember them calling the 360s lauch the worst in history, and the PS3's launch will destroy the 360's and take over the games currently on it when the PS3 comes out (Yes, the cows back then were extremely arrogant). Now, they want the lemmings to hold back. I guess you have to have been here for over 2 years to understand why the cows are hated so much. The lemmings do deserve their glorious moment, the cows had theirs for years. As for superior PS3 support, the PS3 still has to beat what the 360 has, and with the lack of 3rd party exclusives.....

the market is not staying on ps2, its focusing on this gen console and this gen handheld only. rightnow psp is been defetead by DS but i'll give credit to psp for getting where is at. now if i was a developer i would think about these stuff, what system my game will rock, how many people will probably buy my game, etc.. etc.. sony maybe No.1 because of ps2 but not ps3. some of does support from ps2 will be carrying over to ps3 like metal gear and final fantasy but i think it wont be enough since company in the end just want to make money they will also support this gen leader. example of this: Koei= fatal inertia, assasin creed, devil may cry, new ace combat only announce for 360 as of now, tenchu Z exclusive to 360, Nights for wii, mario and sonic olympics (crap in my opinion :D). see where the support is going?

Is this your version pf the "waitstaion argument" :roll: Yawn, this argument is getting old. Blame the Sony hype machine, they should learn the phrase under promise and over deliver, for some reason for Sony it is the other way around.

The PS3 may be future proof, but if Sony does not start pumping the games out soon, the fanbase will never grow causing third-parties to flee elsewhere. It happened to the Gamecube, it can happen to the PS3.

Cows will (and know) live with multiplats and AA games, until Fall. It was their choice.

tbh i believe a statement like this is damage control for cows. You spent $600 on a console thinking it will have all kinds of great games, but so far that hasn't happened or doesn't look to happen anytime soon.and the best argument you can come up with is that the ps2 did good?

I am surprised Ps2 was able to do so good last gen, but the conditions are different now. This time, the 360 has the head-start and already looks to be a big improvement over the xbox. This time the Wii has made a big improvement over the GC as well. You can't count out the other consoles like you did last gen.

When I bought my PS3, I knew the good games were coming in fall and everything before that will be AA. But that doesn't mean it's useless

Your point is very valid that while PS3 library is very slow to start up, it WILL grow and round out more over time.

But FYI, X360 will last longer than 4 months too :)

I know, I know... that's not what I meant. I meant that you don't buy a console for the first months

Yeah, I'm sure that wasn't what you meant. X360 will have a good run for 5 years, then that's a long term investment too. But I say don't buy a system for what will eventually come out, even knowing it's lineup over the next 2 years. Buy it when the games actually ARE there, or has firm release dates. And saying Q3 07 just doesn't cut it, that's too vague and has a good chance of being pushed back. But when the official word comes out that it's Apr 07 or Jan 08, then you know when it'll have what you want.

I didn't buy my X360 at launch, I waited to see how the library was shaping up. By Sep 06 it had the great games already (GRAW, Oblivion, PGR 3), and what was confirmed just around the corner (GeoW, Lost Planet, SC: DA, Dead Rising).

Buy on what's delivered, not on what's promised.

And sheep bought a Wii knowing the graphics were bad, so we should stop talking about Wii's graphics?iunderstand
Yeap we have their dodgy controller, lack of online, ports upon ports, including a gba port. Casual fest that infects the console like a virus. There is more but I am too lazy.

So the Xbox will only be viable for 4 months? Sorry, you just lost all credence with me.

That isn't even close to what he said....

[QUOTE="oback"]still doesnt change the fact that sony doesnt have any decent games. Episode_Eve
No decent games? My 360 didn't have any must have games when I first bought it, until Oblivion released. When I bought my PS3 I got Resistance which I fell is a better launch title that anything 360 had at launch. Overall, PS3 is still a baby and needs more games to showcase itself, which is very true. Lemmings are just digging a whole for themselves now. PS3 will eventually surpass the 360 in AAA exclusives and sales. It's obvious especially since all of the support the PS2 had will come over to PS3 sooner or later.

The PS2 support is automatically gonna go to the PS3? :? The support will go where the money is, which is where ARGUABLY, the Wii and 360 are RIGHT NOW, and will continue to be so until the PS3 hardware sales go up.

Actually, yeah. I don't think ANYONE went out and bought a Wii thinking, "Man! My system is gonna thrash the graphics of the PS3 and 360"

/derail thread

Indeed.  The Wii's graphics do suck, but that's not why I got one.

if that wasn't completely true I wouldn't laugh, but what the heck, all the Wii is getting right now are bad PS2 ports.
